Wallpaper - Greetings from Utica - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Utica wallpaper brings classic mid-century Americana to life with the distinctive charm of vintage travel art. Designed by The Tichnor Brothers, the motif features bold, three-dimensional lettering spelling out "UTICA" across a rich cobalt blue gradient background. Each oversized letter contains detailed vintage scenes of historic architecture, streetscapes, and waterways, framed by vivid red and yellow drop-shadow accents. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper texture, creating a striking graphic statement for interior spaces.

In the room

With its bold graphic typography and strong visual presence, this wallpaper works especially well as a focal feature wall in an entryway, hallway, or living area. In an entrance hall or front passage, the welcoming "Greetings" motif sets a vibrant, nostalgic tone right at the door. Because the artwork functions as a unified, large-scale composition, we recommend placing it on a wider wall where the complete lettering can be viewed without heavy disruption from tall cupboards or high furniture.

Styling it

The graphic, retro nature of this design pairs naturally with mid-century modern and eclectic interiors. To let the bold lettering and vivid palette remain the focal point, we suggest keeping nearby furniture relatively streamlined and uncluttered. Warm wood finishes like walnut or teak complement the vintage tones within the lettering vignettes, while simple dark metal details echo the crisp linework of the typography.

Colour combinations

The design centres on a rich cobalt and sky blue backdrop, energised by warm yellow and vermilion red accents around the three-dimensional lettering. To create a balanced interior, you can pull the deeper blues or crisp off-whites onto adjacent walls and woodwork. Muted warm tones such as soft ochre, rust, or warm grey in surrounding furnishings also echo the architectural scenes captured inside each letter.
